Description
In Studies of light's propagation through biological tissue, the diffusion equation is an effective tool. This book and included CD-ROM will give the reader the needed theoretical background to understand light propagation and the software tools needed to calculate the solutions to the diffusion equation.Although these solutions can be applied to understanding light propagation through tissue,they also apply to the studies of diffusive media in agriculture,forestry, plastics, and pharmaceuticals.
